The Juul will have a place in the starter kit area of the market but from what i have seen it is a bit on the pricey side supposedly looking at £30 for the initial (1 device and 3-4 pods) for the starter kitwhich for me will mean that they will not do too well. When a first time user see how much it is costing them compared to tobacco cigarettes they might not last long on them. Advanced users will not even look at it twice imo. Propitiatory charger port isn't exactly great for a device with a tiny battery so charging on the go will be a faf. The TPD limiting them to 18mg will also hinder them as they are usually much higher in the states from what i have seen. US market is 58-59mg, UK ones wll be limited to 20mgAs Perpetua stated above i have also been trying out JacVapors VIM and it will be head and shoulders above the Jull for being a starter kit. Probably much cheaper too. Some info above.... Cheers. I was a bit off on my estimations on the price of it. I though it was nearer £50 but thanks for clearing it up for me. |

Just done my feedback for the VIM.
It has been a pleasure to test out this dinky wee device that has not really skipped a beat since i got it.
This is the first time i have seen a company openly test out a device to forum members and for me it just shows how confident they are about their product and to get honest feedback to make it a success (which i think it will be).
As JacVapour being the first company i dealt with and bought a device from over 5 years ago to get me off of tobacco i would like to thank everyone at JacVapour for setting me on this path and i wish yourselves all the very best for the future for your product and company.
Cheers
Stu

I have been looking at the concentrates on this site and i am intrigued as to how the intense range of concentrates fares for flavour as they recommend between 3-5% compared to most who are around 15-20%.
Has anyone used them and if so can recommend any decent flavours?

If it's anything like what the Foo Fighters gig i wen't to at West Hams ground a few weeks ago. The Trains were ******* mental coming out at the end. We actually got to the train doors and turned back as it was that packed. Ended up using Uber for the first time and it was effortless, quick and cheap enough. Stayed at the Marriot West Indian Quay so it is quite close to the O2. If i were to go back down to the big smoke around the docklands area i would park a bit away and get an Uber tbh. I was at the Friday night show and getting away was a nightmare, a lot worse than Wembley and the o2, which surprised me. Well worth it for the, er, stadium rock show  Then again the Spurs matches at Wembley have taught me how to get out without getting kettled (head left at the bottom of the ramp and to the left of the Sainsbury's) and the Meantime bar outside the o2 is always open for quite a while after the shows, so I have a few pints while I wait for the crowds to die down. I didn't even learn much for the future if I find myself at the London Stadium again. It was indeed a nightmare going home. We waited for about 20 mins to get to the station platform then when the DLR came around it was chuffing packed to the gunnels so we about turned and left the station. Got a few daft looks from people as we left but it was the right move. We contemplated walking the couple of miles back to the Hotel but thought better of it so i wen't on my mobile and booked an Uber for the first time, literally 2mins later he was there and off we went back to the digs for a nightcap before bed. Great gig though and the stadium was nice as well. |

Turbo coils are best for flavour. I used mine with the airhole open and was getting a great vape from it. Had two tanks of juice through it and the coil is goosed. Could well be my fault but the others lasted longer than the Turbo.
Going to try the other one and see how i get on with it.
I have been liking the MTL and DL coils. I find the falvour on the MTL the best from the 2 with the airflow adapter on. The DL ones with the airflow open are a nice restrictive lung hit but the battery doesn't last long on them.

The real big problem is the propriety bottles as the TPD regs state that if the bottle can only be used in a squonk mod then it's a no go but if a bottle like the modmakers ones that i recently purchased for my Hotcig RSQ can be used in not only a variety of mod's but for other things like just to store liquid or anything really they should be good to go. All the vendors like Modmakers have to do is just list them as a 6 or 7ml bottle and remove the name squonk from them and the TPD can't affect them. Let's face it if you are going to be buying spare squonk bottles for the mod's you already have you are going to know what bottles fit the device  The problem with Modmakers bottles are the lids. They would have to sell the bottle with a lid with no hole for the squonk tube and the tubing itself. No problem, just put a normal top on the bottle and sell the metal top with the hole in it separate........em........not quite. ANY item, or combination of items that used together, can be attributed to increasing capacity beyond 2ml will be deemed as an offence. The vendor I have been following on this has, in the last two weeks, had a visit from Trading Standards. They nailed him for selling bubble/extension glasses for RTA's. On being asked what these items were and what they were used for, he said they were napkin holders, TS response to his answer " good luck convincing a judge on that one". The vendors are the same as their customers, we all know this TPD thing is bullshit and bollox, but put yourself in their shoes. Do you go to court and pour money down the drain fighting a battle you cannot win because the wording of the act is what is known as "all encompassing" or just pull the plug on the troublesome product and get the monkey's of your back ? Aye, i get you're point mate. The only thing you would be able to buy is just the bottle on it's own then. Looks like i will be stocking up shortly then. |

I got the Oreo update for my Samsung S7 last week and it has been great so far. Better battery life and performance.
I was thinking of upgrading before the update but now i think i will save my cash and stick with it a bit longer now tbh.

Have use heard they're cracking down on squonk bottles over 2ml 😱😭 I watched The vaping Bikers Live channel last night and he was going through what was happening with it. The Government are now classing squonk bottles the same as tanks regarding the TPD so they are going to limit them to 2ml which for a squonker is mental. The only way to buy a squonker in the UK is without a bottle if the TPD regs are going to include squonkers. There are shipping companies ( DHL, UPS) clamping down on tanks with over 2ml capacity in the UK so it's not looking good. |
